Utrechtlaan 11

A welcoming home with plenty of room for family life. Built in 1949, this charming property combines character with a fresh, contemporary feel. Modern colour schemes, oak flooring and beautiful natural light create a warm and harmonious interior. At the front, the inviting sitting area offers a comfortable retreat. The gas fireplace, visible from both sides, connects the cosy atmosphere of the front room with the lively heart of the home: the kitchen and dining area. This is a place for cooking, catching up and enjoying leisurely meals together. The generous island features striking gas burners integrated directly into the worktop, complemented by an American-style fridge-freezer, Miele steam oven, combination oven, dishwasher and Quooker boiling-water tap. A dedicated coffee corner for the first cup of the day, deep drawers and a built-in cupboard for crockery ensure that practical details have been carefully considered too. French doors invite life to spill out into the garden on warmer days.

The rear garden is a lovely setting for long summer afternoons and evenings. Its westerly aspect brings sunshine from early afternoon until late in the evening. Two terraces provide space for outdoor dining and relaxing. A timber shed and rear access add everyday convenience. There is also a front garden with space for bicycles, offering a choice of sunny spots around the house throughout the day.

Upstairs, everyone has a space of their own. The first floor offers three lovely bedrooms and a bathroom with a timeless design. One of the bedrooms is currently used as a study, while the separate laundry room is a welcome addition for busy family life. On the second floor, a bright bedroom with a large dormer window, fitted wardrobes and air conditioning provides a peaceful retreat at the end of the day. The spacious bathroom echoes the style of the bathroom below, with the added comfort of underfloor heating.

The location completes the picture. In this welcoming neighbourhood, everyday amenities are close at hand. Walking to school, picking up fresh bread or heading out for lunch: the lively Binnenweg and Raadhuisstraat offer a wide range of shops, specialist retailers, cafés and restaurants. Nearby Groenendaal woodland is ideal for a breath of fresh air, with a playground and petting farm for younger children. Sports facilities are also close by, and main roads towards Amsterdam, The Hague, Rotterdam and Schiphol Airport are easily accessible.
